physiological function | lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a key enzyme in facilitating fatty acid uptake from lipoproteins. Very low-density lipoprotein-triglyceride (VLDL-TG) is a quantitative important substrate for lipid oxidation contributing with 10-20% to total energy expenditure, but only 3-6% during exercise despite an increase in total lipid oxidation. VLDL-TG storage is measured in adipose tissue biopsies. Exercise does not affect muscle LPL activity. No association is observed between muscle LPL activity and VLDL-TG oxidation, neither in the basal state nor during exercise. Exercise does not affect upper body or lower body adipose tissue LPL activity. The basal adipose tissue fractional VLDL-TG storage is not associated with upper body or lower body subcutaneous adipose tissue LPL activity. Muscle LPL activity does not predict VLDL-TG oxidation during rest or exercise. In addition, adipose tissue LPL activity is not associated with VLDL-TG storage | Homo sapiens |
